We Must Not Turn Back

By A Patriot

I am asking you to join me in voting for the United Progressive Party (UPP) this Thursday, March 12th. The polls are open from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm and don't forget to take your voter identification card with you! If you don't know where to vote or if you don't know if you're eligible to vote, you can find out on the UPP website:

The UPP has done so much for this country. From paying our pensioners to opening Mt. St. John's to starting the School Meals Programme and the School Uniforms programme. The UPP made promises to us in 2004 and they've delivered.

Now, they're planning to open the University of Antigua and Barbuda. They also plan to give us the right to own, have a say over and profit from state owned companies through their Power to the People initiative. The UPP has us on the right track and headed in the right direction. We must not turn back.

The ALP's manifesto is a dangerous document that promises voodoo economics that will make our country as poor as Haiti. Their sinful rhetoric calling for us to be divided into tribes, calling our church leaders wicked and evil and calling for blood to flow in the streets shows us that they are not fit to lead.

I hope you'll join me in voting solidly UPP on Justice Day, Thursday, March 12th. Every vote counts and I personally hope that you'll join me in voting UPP. Our country needs us.

Remember, all that it needs for evil to prosper is for good men and women to remain quiet.

Please ensure that your voice is heard in defense and love of Antigua and Barbuda by voting for the United Progressive Party Candidate in tomorrow's elections.
